One day late because I came home exhausted yesterday. I’m already proud I’m writing this on Monday and not like.. Saturday (which would be pointless considering the next one is on Sunday).
I finished Miss Peregrine’s and really enjoyed it. Now I need to get my hands on the sequels…
I started and finished A Thousand Nights. I finished it pretty quickly last night because I skipped entire paragraphs. I just read the first sentence, realised it wasn’t important and skipped it. IT WAS SO BORING OH MY GOD. I’m looking forward to ranting reviewing it
After that I wanted to make sure that my next read would be something I’d enjoy, so since I’ve wanted to reread The Perks of Being A Wallflower for a while now, I decided now was the time.
I had to write a court report which meant I had to go to a trial. Though it was exciting, after many years of (obsessively) playing Ace Attorney I was a bit disappointed that no one yelled OBJECTION and that there was no showdown between the prosecutor and defence attorney or that it turned out that one of the witnesses had done it… Kidding about he last part of course haha
This week I have to write another report, but it can be anything as long as it’s newsworthy. So yesterday I went to the prizegiving ofΒ Β ‘Het Roze Lieverdje’, which is an award for someone who has done a lot for the LGBTQ community in Amsterdam. If I have the time and energy (and if my memory doesn’t fail me) I’ll write a post about it on The Feministas. It was definitely a good experience, so I hope I don’t forget to write about it!
GUYS TEEN WOLF. This almost the same as last week’s paragraph about Teen Wolf haha. BUT THE EPISODES ARE SO ON POINT LATELY. It’s like old school Teen Wolf. Though definitely darker. It was just a perfect episode okay. AND COACH NEXT EP. I MISSED YOU COACH.
I’m less excited about this week’s Fosters though. I might write a rant about it actually. I do like that Jesus is finally getting a storyline that doesn’t involve a girl (HALLELUJAH) though um. Why did he get a job that easily. It literally went like this:
Jesus: I want a job
Guy in charge of the construction site: OK, go help that guy
Um. What. He did ask for his age, but do you seriously immediately believe him when he says he’s 18? (which he’s not by the way, if you don’t watch the show). Why aren’t you asking him to show his ID? Why aren’t you asking for his medical records? Why aren’t you interviewing him? For a show that has such important messages and gets a lot of things right, this was so hilarious and unrealistic. I’m mostly unexcited about what they’re doing to my baby Mariana, but I’ll leave that for my possible rant (I’m liking the idea of writing about it more and more, because I’m really upset)
On another note I finished Pinocchio and it put me in a Kdrama slump. I DON’T WANT TO WATCH ANYTHING NEW I’M NOT READY YET

How was your week? Let me know in the comments!
NO OBJECTIONS?! THE WITNESS DIDN’T DO IT??! How tragic!
Okay, I’ve been meaning to ask you…HOW DO YOU DO GRAPHICS IT HAS YOUR FACE IS ADROABLE
That is all.
RIGHT?! I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED. It was soo civil the judge would ask the prosecutor and defense attorney if they had any objections and they’d get up and say something. I was waiting for them to yell objection. WHY MUST YOU DISAPPOINT ME THIS WAY DUTCH COURT SYSTEM. I use an app called MomentCam! :) It’s really simple to use too π
Thank you so much for featuring one of my posts! <3
The Perks is such a great book, you make me want to reread it so badly!
Of course I loved it! :)
I’m glad you’re finding time to read and reread books :) Something tells me you’d find the money referenced on my Malcolm in the Middle post haha.
Haha I’m too exhausted to do much else. When I’m done with schoolwork I just end up in my bed with a book. I’ll have to read that post!
I think you will :) I was ill or I’d have been able to go to a scavenger hunt on the weekend. I’m curious to know if I’m still as good as I was a kid.
Ooh that sounds fun! Can you still go on a scavenger hunt or was it an organised event? Maybe you’re even better now ;)
Organised event. I like how you think. It’s fun when you do a hunt with someone having hidden it yourself. You can go “warmer warmer, colder, freezing” haha.
Aww hopefully you’ll have a chance to go on one soon :) Haha yeah I love doing that too!
Your week always is more eventful than mine XD
Haha usually it’s eventful because of school though XD plus I always talk about tv shows so it looks like I did more than I actually did π
Haha. I also have school and watch some pretty awesome tv shows. My week still isn’t interesting XD
Thank you for featuring one of my posts! I always feel so special whenever I get that notification <3 No one shouted Objection?! Ahh… I feel like everything's a lie now!
You’re welcome! I loved your post so I had to share it :) Right?! I’m so conflicted about it
Thanks for featuring my post! I just got back today and my experience there was so magical I’m going to be writing a whole post on my trip!
I also tend to reread The Perks of Being a Wallflower a lot, especially after books I did not enjoy. I have A Thousand Nights on my shelf and I want to read it eventually but now I’m not so sure if it’ll happen soon.
Great post!!!
You’re welcome and welcome back! :D I’m looking forward to read that post! I’m glad you had fun (but that was to be expected ;)) Aww there are people who really enjoyed it though! But I get that it makes you hesitant, I always get too when people talk negatively about a book on my tbr. Thanks! :)
Aww thanks!!
Yay! I see my post featured in your post! Thank you for that!
And it sounds like you had a lovely week! Writing a court report? That’s pretty cool if you ask me!
I really loved your post, so of course I had to share it :) I did, busy but fun :) Yeah it was! I felt like a bit of a professional, sitting there in the audience π
That’s to cool that you have to write court reports! Over my summer and winter breaks I interned at an attorney’s office, so I got to spend plenty of time in a courtroom. It’s so interesting to watch!
Anyways, thanks for the shoutout! :)
Ooh that sounds cool! And you’re very welcome :)
Whoah a court report with no objections, that’s a weak opposition party! lol I have to admit that my knowledge of the courtroom extends only as far as How to Get Away With Murder and the occasional drama from other tv shows, so the real thing must be quite exciting! Also, I’m looking forward to your rant about A Thousand Nights. I’m amazed you finished it, I usually just give up when I realize I’ve been skimming pages or just reading the dialogues XD
and weeee can’t wait for summer to roll by so that the InterBlogCon happens soon!
Haha well, they did object, but the judge would ask them if they had any objections and it was just all very civil. I expected them to just shout OBJECTION in the middle of the proceedings and battle it out, but oh well XD Yeah it was! And it was a murder case, which made it even more exciting (and slightly frightening). Haha I wanted to give up, but I thought: what if it gets better? And then at the end I was just curious where the hell this was going XD Yes same! It’s going to be so much fun :D
I haven’t watched The Foster’s lately but what you talked about Jesus seems pretty lame and I don’t want to watch it even more now! I haven’t started any K-dramas after Pinocchio but, I will start another one soon! Maybe Pinocchio was so good it put you in a slump! :)
I’m not really a fan of this season, but I’m loyal and keep watching. Besides Lena and Stef are adorable, Lena is inspirational, and I love Judicorn and Mariana (even though the writers are sometimes wasting her potential). Haha Pinocchio definitely did! I just looked at my list of dramas to watch and didn’t want to watch any of them XD
Fosters is okay…not the best…but I really want to re watch Pinocchio as if watching it for the first time again!
Yeah it has such important messages sometimes, but they focus on so much unnecessary drama and sometimes the writing just doesn’t make sense :/ Same! I wish I could erase my memory of it haha.
Yass! I feel the same way!!! The next K drama I’m going to watch is You’re Beautiful…is it good?
I haven’t continued it yet! I love Park Shin Hye, but she was trying to extinguish a fire by spitting on it and it made me a bit nauseous π I’m going to continue it soon though! I liked the first episode (I’m halfway through the second) :) It was really funny π
LOL! I’m going to watch it later!
Yay! :D
TEEN WOLF YES. STIIIIILLLESSSSSSS. <3 <3 <3 <3
AHEM. I only just noticed this–but THANK YOU for mentioning my NZ pics!!
YESSSSS!! And you’re welcome ^-^ They’re gorgeous so I had to :)
Thank you for the shout out, Michelle! So happy you enjoyed the post. And oh, you didn’t like A Thousand Nights? I’ve heard varying reviews on that one, but I just so love retellings of Arabian Nights. Sigh. And I have never heard of the show Fosters, but that exchange between Jesus (like, is this actually THE Jesus?) and the construction guy sounds hilarious XD
Thank you for commenting on The Devil Orders Takeout!
You’re welcome! :) Yeah sadly I didn’t :/ But I’ve read really positive reviews, so maybe you’ll end up loving it! :) Haha no he isn’t the Jesus That would make it even funnier though XD
